[news] 2AM Lee Changmin "Add the Chef-Dol title"



Challenging himself to get chef license this summer

In the long list of nicknames for certain idols like Variety-Dol, Beast-Dol, Emotional-Dol etc., it seems that 'Chef-Dol' will be added.

Chef-Dol is a word that is used for idol members who are good at cooking. The idol most deserving of this title is the group 2am's member Lee Changmin (picture).

Lee Changmin is challenging himself to get the chef license this summer, and become the top chef-dol. Lee Changmin, in a recent interview with Sports Donga, said that during when 2am activity will cease for a while, "In the summer, I'm thinking that I'll apply for the examination to get the chef license." He revealed, "I'm debating whether to go for the western or the Korean food chef license."

Lee Changmin's cooking skills have become a hot issue before, revealed on variety TV programs. The most typical example is MBC's show 'We Got Married', inwhich JoKwon, another member of 2am, has been casted. Also in reality, Lee Changmin is called 'Chang Geum Yi', derived from the drama 'Jang Geum Yi', for his cooking skills in the group home because of his cooking skills.

He described himself as "Goal-oriented" and revealed his hope about the chef license, saying, "I want to evolve my usual interest in cooking into a more specific goal called a chef license."

[NEWS] 2AM's Changmin was an "adorably chubby child"!


According to the non-scripted reality show "2AM Day," Changmin's childhood pictures were brought to attention. Through the 10 days of the shows filming, Changmin showed a rare video of himself in a singing competition. This picture shows Changmin as a 4th grade elementary student singing solo at an open performance in Canada, which is quite different from his present image. The physique he has now as a 2AM member could be seen as laughably incongruent with the soulful vocals he has had since his childhood.

Along with Changmin's childhood, the show will also reveal behind the scenes of their MV, the truth about life living in the 2AM dorms, ect, and capture the attention of the fans.

"Watching the footage, you can easily tell none these cameras were staged," the head PD said. "The comfortable way the members interact, it will be clear to everyone that this isn't another scripted reality show!"

Choikang Changmin and Joo Sang Wook are attracting Japanese fans to Jejudo.

The two are currently in Jejudo filming for the drama 'Paradise Meadow' and this has caused Japanese fans to fly to the island to give their support to the two stars.

Choikang Changmin is a member of male idol group TVXQ. He is a A-list Hallyu star who has already appealed to many Japanese fans through TVXQ's Japanese albums.
Joo Sang Wook starred in KBS 2TV's 'That Fool' and MBC's 'Kimcheed Radish Cubes' and approached his Japanese fans through dramas; his charisma is capturing the hearts of women all over Japan. Last year, he solidified his popularity with a fan meeting in Japan and he is planning to create an official Japanese fanclub soon.

A representative of the drama said, "The two stars' Japanese fans have been visiting on location regularly. There are about ten people coming every day," and "It is not only international fans though. Many Korean travelers, who are visiting Jejudo, come on location to support the two."

Even when filming was being done in Australia last year with Choikang Changmin, Lee Yeon Hee and Joo Sang Wook, an Australian newspaper announced that Korean stars were coming to film in the country.

[NEWS] DBSK's Changmin to be in Japanese magazine 'SPUR'!


In the February 23rd edition of SPUR, there will be a photoshoot and interview with TVXQ’s youngest member, Changmin. He stands at 186cm stall, and has gotten slimmer these days. He has gotten more mature recently and the stylists put together clothes of styles that are in fashion these days from COMME des GARCONS. After the photoshoot began, what surprised me was that when he was wearing a suit, he was able to fully showcase his versatile facial expressions and poses that were as good as, no, better than those of a model. With the best smile in the world and a shy expression that had traces of his childhood, he had a mature look in his eyes when wearing the suits and his overflowing charm made the staff forget what they were doing and say “Changmin, you are so handsome.” Because the photoshoot went so smoothly, he finished earlier than expected. (That doesn’t happen that often)

After the photoshoot, Changmin said, “It was fun to wear different styles of suits.”

He was polite and well mannered during the interview.
The magazine will be released on February 23rd, please anticipate it.

[News]2AM's Changmin Before and After Photos

2AM Chang-Min’sbefore pic has been dug up by fellow netizens and has been gaining interest since.

The picture on above captures Chang-Min, which was broadcasted 2005 via MBC show Smile Virus – College. As you can see from the picture, Chang-Min seems chubbier than now and he looks like an ordinary college student with a hat and a black t-shirt. The screen text states that he is a member of a college organization Judis.

However, this might be a somewhat expected find for 2AM fans because Chang-Min already revealed that his weight was over 100kg when he was a trainee in a TV show.

Here is another shot of him from early days.

Here is how 2AM Chang-Min looks now…

[news] Yunho and Changmin’s fathers express strong disapproval of other members


The fathers of Yunho and Changmin, the two members that have sided with SM entertainment, spoke in support of their sons and SME while condemning other three members and their parents. They claimed that the dispute has more to do with the trouble that have arisen from the beauty product business rather than contractual matters.

Mr. Chung, the father of Yunho, stated:

The two members who did not involve themselves in this legal dispute are the real victims here. They suffered from financial loss, psychological suffering and most importantly they lost their reputation. Who is to compensate them for their losses? I intend to ask the three members this: Whatever the reason, why do you intend to cause such great controversy and drive DBSK, an international brand name, into a break-up? Do you care at all about the other two members and their suffering?

The beauty product business wasn't something that was supervised by SME. On top of that, the beauty product company itself wasn't very trustworthy. When it was started, I felt that DBSK's reputation could potentially suffer from involvement with that company and advised my son of the issue. He shared my concerns as well, and that is why he did not involve himself in the business. SME later asked the three members to withdraw from the business but their parents resisted unreasonably. Mr. Shim (Changmin's father) and I tried to convince them as well but they simply refused to change their minds. I later learned that the three members took up legal actions against SME without consulting me nor Mr. Shim. DBSK is not owned by those three members only. They ignored not only the controversy that would rise but also the rights of other two members.


Mr. Shim, father of Changmin, stated:

Simply put, the other three members took legal actions against SM because of the beauty product business matter and other reasons which involve their financial gains. What they claim as their reasons, reasons such as unfair contract and unclear profit division are merely excuses to hide the true reason behind their actions. After the three members started the beauty product business, one of the parents called me and told me shenanigans like "This business can be worth millions or even billions in the future. When we tell the media that DBSK has started a business, share price of our company will hit the roof - we will tell you in advance so you can profit from the information."

Three members claim that the contract is unfair and calculations are unclear, but my son and I have read over the contract with SM clearly and agreed to all clauses, from the very first contract through all five revisions that have been made. For every income my son has received I reviewed all of the the numbers. I feel sorry for the three members and their parents as they must know of the truth but they continue to make false claims."

[news] UPDATED: Yunho and Changmin "We will stay in SM" + they will support SM



Yunho and Changmin of DBSK said in a written statement that they'll stay with SM Entertainment.

"We will stay SM Enterainment" was a statement they have written at 63 Building at a DBSK-SM press conference today.

We will report you further on this situation when more information is available.

It seems like a Shinhwa situation will arise as these two showed faithfulness towards SM Entertainment. Although this decision was made by Yunho and Changmin, just the way things were written feels like Lee Soo Man has a good grip on these boys.

cr: omgkpop

UPDATE: compiled document stated:
The two members' thoughts were delivered through a compiled document, which stated:
We five members of DBSK signed the same contract with the same clauses and for the past five years, and have worked together under same conditions with utmost trust in the company, each other and our dreams. We intend to share our dream and future with the company and keep the promises we made in the contract. DBSK was made by SM and we intend to work as DBSK with SM.

No other company can create DBSK, as only SM can provide the best production and management team available. The three members must know better than anyone else that SM is the one who knows DBSK the best and made DBSK the best. We intend to keep trust and promise and thus intend on staying with SME. DBSK's grand future will be with SME. We believe that our Korean promotion, planned for next spring, should be prepared at least six months in advance before our future as one DBSK becomes unclear. If the other three members truly want to stay as one DBSK, they must make a decision before it is too late.


They also commented on the beauty product controversy which sparked this legal dispute:
The beauty product business changed everything," they stated, "We are not familiar with the matters but we believe that a legitimate company that seeks to do business with DBSK must consult with SM first. It is common sense. We did not get involved as getting involved with a company that sought to do business without SM would have meant that trouble was ahead.

We did not want the reputation and pride of DBSK, earned by our hard work, to get ruined by a beauty product company that did not work in a legally respectable manner. We are not aware of the contract between that company and the three members, nor do we know what those members were told or how much they have earned through their deal. What we do know is that the fact that DBSK, forged together for 5 years by all of our dreams, have fallen into the current state because of an unethical company is simply unacceptable.

DBSK crumbling away like this, this is all so unbelievable. It is sad to see that this was all caused by some beauty product company, and we hope that the three members would come back to the days when we were all working hard for our dreams.

[news] Changmin’s book tops charity auction

Photobucket

DBSK’s youngest, 21-year old ‘Choikang/Max’ Changmin is participating in Lotte’s ‘The 4th’s Stars’ Most Treasured Campaign’ event that auctions off stars’ treasured used goods on the Lotte website in an effort to raise money for From Care, a Korean animal protection association which aids in giving proper food to neglected animals.
This event is the second official auction in a four-part series, the first of which ended on October 15th. Alongside Changmin, other notable stars Super Junior’s Leeteuk, Rain, Wonder Girls‘ Sunye and Yoobin, Yoon Eun-hye, T-ara, 2PM’s Nichkhun, and Lee Junki have also put up items for auction.

Changmin’s Japanese practice book, entitled “Minna No Nihonggo Shokyu” has reached the top auction position with a current price of 1,464,600 won–around $1250USD. Coming next in line is Lee Junki’s pants, at 800,800 won, or around$680USD.

It is said that the Japanese book also contains traces of Changmin’s handwriting. His signature also appears to grace the cover.

Alongside the auction, Lotte is also simultaneously conducting the ‘Thermometer of Love’ event, in which every 50 ‘love messages’ written will save 1 bag of animal food. At this time, over 156,000 netizens participated in the event, which has thus provided for 313 bags of animal food.

It’s pretty much unnecessary to note on the utter craziness that is spending over a thousand dollars on an old Japanese workbook, but when charity comes into question, you can’t really say anything. Nevertheless, it’s nice to see all these stars coming together for a good cause–and the fans that will go to the greatest heights to support these causes (or their insatiable fangirling habits; take your pick.)
This round of auctions will be ending tomorrow. The subsequent round of auctions will commence on the 23rd.

So what is the good that is up from Changmin for the auction? A dork smart guy he is, he put a Japanese learning book entitled “Minna No Nihonggo Shokyu” 2nd level for his auction good.

So far, his book is worth 260,000 won, the second highest offer after Lee Jun-ki jeans that is currently worth for 575,900 won, and it will keep increasing until the auction closes on October 22nd, 16:00.

Anyone interested to learn Japanese “with” Changmin as well as giving some love to the cutie buddies out there?
